Well we passed the Sunda strait at 0300 local time
this morning amid a host of ships, car ferries and a thunderstorm with
torrential rain - thank goodness AIS can see through rain. Fi was driving while
I talked to ships - one of which stopped while two altered course for us while
we were hidden in the downpour. Thankfully it soon cleared and the radar came
back on stream enabling us to continue our course south. No drama - well a bit -
Toby slept through it all - probably just as well. Now anchored 50 m off shore
beneath the slopes of Anak Krakatoa - I can feel a walk coming on - after
breakfast and a good cup of coffee.
